THE BEGINNING OE THE END.

Every day brings the Republican Presi-
Sherman's grasp. The lines of concen-
tration of the party strength grow clearer
almost hourly, and Sherman is the con-
centrative object. The accession of the
New York Tribune to the Sherman in
terest strongly indicated the drift OF east
ern Republican sentiment, and now the
voice OF western Republicanism is making
itself heard, Senator Allison of Iowa has
just given in his adhesion to Sherman.
The Iowa Republican leader is force in
his party. He is Sherman's strongest
western party rival. His following is
large and devoted. He is very good Re-
publican Presidential timber himself, as
Republican Presidential timber goes,
and his pronouncing in favor of Sherman
is certain indication that the western Re-
publicans will support the Ohio leader
in the convention. Allison has his eve
on the Presidency. He can wait, how
ever. He recognizes that Republican
triumph in 1888 will much improve the
prospects of similar victory four years
later. He also recognizes that Repub-
lican triumph in 1888 is, to say the least,
extremely problematical. The chances
of success are SO very slim that Mr.. Alli-
son does not care to lead the Republi-
can forlorn hope. He much prefers that
the name ofa rival party leader be iden-
titled with the desperate attempt. Sher-
man is the man he most fears, and SO
Sherman goes before the convention with
Allison's support. Should Sherman be
defeated at the polls he is disposed of as
a party rival, and Allison's chances
are strengthened for the future. Should
Sherman be elected, the Republican party
would again be in power. Mr.. Allison
would receive leading cabinet position
as reward for his support, and would
be the coming Republican nominee four
years later, with many more chances in
his favor than exist at present. Mr.
Allison is good politician. But he is
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1887-04-18

also good Republican. The one is
fatal to the other. The days of Repub-
lican supremacy have passed away, and
Mr.. Allison's political talents are useless
to him. There is only one thing
more certain than Sherman's nomi-
nation by the Republican convention,
and that is his defeat at the polls. And
with personal disaster to Sherman will
come final disaster to his party. Blaine
died politically in 1884. In 1888 Sherman
and the Republican party will both meet
Blaine's fate. Aside from the fact that
the Nation will have no more of Republi-
canism, the candidacy of John Sherman
is ominous to his party. The people are
afraid of Sherman. He will be as heavy
a political lightweight in 1888 as
Blaine was in 1884. The people were
afraid of Blaine. They expressed this
fear at the polls. The same expression
of fear will meet Sherman from the same
quarter. The grounds of fear are radi-
cally different. The result will be the
same. The people feared Blaine as the
brilliant demagogue. They fear Sher-
man as the incarnation of political selfish
ness. Blaine is a burning fever. Sher-
man is dose of cold poison. The
National Democratic physician made a
diagnosis of Blaine's disease eminently
satisfactory to the people. He will not
fail to make one equally acceptable in
Sherman's case.

ratification. There is no reason 10 e1-
pect anything else from the new District
Attorney. He will doubtless discharge
his duties as honestly and effectively as
his predecessor. The DEMOCRAT
will not, at all events, en-
courage him to do otherwise
by condemning him in advance, by the
assertion that his appointment indicates
the intention of the Administration to
"only make showing" of the execution
of the law against polygamy and unlaW-
full cohabitation. If, however, the new
appointee should evince such lukeWarm-
ness in the prosecution of these cases
as to warrant the inference that
he is in the slightest degree In
huenced by sympathy with the
violators of the law, THE DEMOCRAT will
be the first to denounce him and demand
his immediate removal from office. 1t
will not, however, anticipate the neces-
sity for such a course by the prediction
that he will come here for any other pur-
pose than to insure, if possible, the rigid
execution of the law. Sufficient is the
dav for the evil thereof.

THE HUNGER OF THE ANIMALS

A FABLE.
Once upon time there was region in
the West, and it was called Utah. And
Utah was tributary to a great power in
the East, and this power was called the
United States. Now, in Utah, the United
States had erected many stables, and
they were tenanted by animals known as
Republicans. And the places in the
stables were given to the Republicans
in consideration of certain work to
be performed for the United States.
And the work was done, but in the doing
thereof the Republican nature was dis
played, and the work was done more for
the animals than it was for the United
States, to whom the stables belonged.
And the animals said one to another, owe
own the places in the stables the United
States has built in Utah." And for a
long time it was even as the Republican
animals said. And the same thing hap
pened elsewhere. The United States had
built many stables beside those of
Utah, and the places therein were
filled and owned by Republican animals,
even as it was in Utah. But the United
States grew weary, and a change oc-
CURED. But the change came gradually,
and was long in reaching Utah, and the
only difference the Republican animals
in the Utah stables knew vas in a
change of provender. For the proven
der placed in the racks of
the Utah stables was now Demo
cratic. And the change in provender
was pleasant to the Republican animals
in Utah's government stables, and they
ate heartily, and with great relish, say
ing one to another, in the Republican
idiom: owe are in luck. We keep our
places and spoil the enemy at one and
the same time" And the Democratic
provender agreed with them. And they
took a closer grip and waxed still fatter,
and were vain, and kicked on
all occasions. And the United States
grew more tired still. And there
was an exodus of Republican ami
mails from the stables OF Utah.
And the Republican animals were 10th to
go, for the Republican appetite yearned
after United States provender, even after
Democratic provender. But the doors OF
the government stables were thrown
open. The Republican animals we're
driven forth. Their places know
them no more. The racks were
no longer for their emptying, and they
hungered exceedingly. And the Republi-
can animal that made the greatest noise,
even the one employed by the other Re.
publican animal to shout for them, lifted
up its voice, and cursed Republican
curses loud and long. But the United
States hearkened not, and the people
laughed. And the United States owned
its stables in Utah, ,and the places therein
once more. And the racks were filled
anew with Democratic provender, and
the eating thereof was for the benefit OF
the Government, and the Republican
animals were hungry unto the last day.

To the Democratic victory in Rhode
Island and the earthquake in Vermont is
now added the cyclone in Ohio. John
Sherman's hair is reported to be standing

mont convulsion? We have heard no
more cold, personal remarks lately from
the Patriarchal Presidential boom.

pired. At last accounts, the medical ex-

has been searching for the hole the Salt

found the hole last Saturday night. The

not incommode our contemporary. 1t

THE LIGHT COMETH.

The morning Church Signal of Woe
has at last succeeded in finding the
boom. In its Sunday morning edition it
copies the real estate transfers given in
Saturdays DEMOCRAT, and places over
them boom headings, spelled with very
big B. THE DEMOCRAT has long been
aware of the power of the Salt Lake real
estate boom, but in thus forcing open the
eyes of the blind, it has developed a re-
serve strength unsuspected even by us.
We congratulate our contemporary, and
sincerely trust that it will improve its
newly-acquired vision to the utmost, and
henceforth walk strictly in the light
vouchsafed it by the boom and The
DEMOCRAT.
